In a lot of places it’s a bad idea not to have a gun when hiking, unless you think that being eaten by a bear seems like a lot of fun.

My fear is that it will be adapted as cyberpunk. Snow Crash isn’t cyberpunk, it’s a satire of cyberpunk. That has a substantially different tone, and satire is notoriously difficult.

Are you suggesting that Trump fly commercial? I could get behind that. I’m sure he’ll have a good time.

“but the pest control guys I spoke to indicated that the only effective chemical against bedbugs is ordinary isopropyl alcohol.”

What about women who are forced to give birth who die in child birth?That doesn’t help them out very much. 

Have you thought about going and fucking yourself, you piece of human garbage?

You know, as much as I love making fun of Roy Moore, you can’t have it both ways: if a big gun is overcompensating, a small one can’t can’t really do what you are suggesting, can it?

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls: step right up and see the amazing man with no perception! How does he manage to get through his day, you ask? Well, my good people, that is a question for the ages! Five dollars, one crisp and clean Abe Lincoln, to the man or woman who can unravel the mystery of the man with no…

If you couldn’t care less about liberal or conservatives, why did you vote for Trump, then?

All you need is an adapter.

Baby snowflake needs a safe space! wah-wah-wah!

So, Star Trek Discovery. I went in with very low expectations. I think the first episode was a waste of a primetime slot, and certainly was nothing more than a cash grab for CBS All Access, given the way it... ended? Did the episode end? My takeaway from the “transition” is that maybe those NCIS guys would deal with…

How big of you to have deleted the conversation that makes you look like a prat. Having read many of the stories you’ve published, you’ve certainly met my expectations. I hope you enjoy reading “certainly met my expectations” in print, since I doubt you ever got that from your parents.

That’s how it works; you start out re-doing what you did towards the end of your masters program, and then work up from there, in multiple courses, until you are ready for your comps. I’m a failure who left his program fairly early, but I still took all those courses.

It’s a good thing there aren’t any Star Trek fans who read this website, just sitting there, waiting to discuss the goods and bads and weird transitions-to-NCIS of the first fucking NEW STAR TREK TO BE SHOWN IN PRIME TIME ON A MAJOR FUCKING NETWORK in years because, if there were, I might be salty that this fucking…

And what were you other stories? If you have four stories on a given evening, and one gets 10 readers, and the other three get 9 readers, 8 readers, and 7 readers, respectively, the ones with 10 and 9 readers are both your “top-performing stories of the night.” That doesn’t doesn’t mean much if you used to get 10,000…

By what metric? It sure didn’t seem to engage the commentariat.

I will happily give you my Discovery thoughts: the first episode was a waste of a prime time slot. It ended... “abruptly” would be an understatement, and the transition made me think that maybe the NCIS crew was going to take care of the Klingon threat.

So this stupid shit gets live-blogged, but we are sitting here nearly an hour-and-a-half since the first new episode of Star Trek to hit a prime time slot on a major channel in who-knows-how-long aired, and there is nothing about it on The AV Club? Maybe we deserve trump.
